To CZZZ w tem may concern Be it known that l, lVAL'rnn i. OESUHGER, a citizen of the United States oi' America, residing at Detroit, in the county of Wayne g and State of ll/iichigan, have invented certuin new and useful Improvements in ndicators, of which the following is aspecication, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawings.
in the operation or'. multi-cylinder internal combustion engines, particularly those of automobiles, it is the present practice to maint-ein oil in the crank cese of the engine, to lubricate crank pins, bearings and other movable parte by 'splash or automatic feed systems, and this invention relates to ineens for fletermining the quantity or level offoii in .an engine crank case.
The object of my invention is, to provide an indicator of the Hoet'. actuated type which cenloe easily and quickly installed to indicate the quantity of lubricant in a crank case, the inciiczrtor being simple in constrnction, not liable to injury by orclinary use, and highly efficient 'for the purposes for whi'chit is 'intenciecl The above and other object-s are attained by a 'mechai'iicel constrncion'.that' vwill he hereinafter specically fleecriloecl and then claiinecl, reference will non' be haci to the drawing, wherein-- Figure l is longituinal sectional.

the drawing, l denotes, hy the wey :in ernnple, a hollow angle connection heringz :i'ered inner end i, and c fiel-eci outer necioii is suitably connected, to the eife Wall. of en engine crank case 5, by screw bolts 6 or similar fastening Ineens, and this inner end, of the angle connection coirnnnniczies or ree-iste; with :in opening 7 in the weli 4i.
'The outer flared end 3 of the coi necion l is exteriorly Soren/threaded, es uit Z andsenterl on the outer end of seid conu .nectionis a 'alici plate 9 retained thereon by e oep l0, screwecl upon the outer end 3.0il the connection.

What I claim is l. An indicator of the type described comprising an angle connection adapted for attachment to an engine crank case, a deV tachable dial carried by said angle connection, a spindle disposed eccentrically of said dial, a pointer on the outer end of 'said spindle adapted to swing in an arc over said dial, a slotted crank on the'inner end of said spindle and in parallelism With-said dial, and a float actuated arm in said angle connection and pivoted in the angle of saidr connection With Vthe outerend of said arm extending into the slotted portionof said crank whereby a movement of said lioat actuated arm imparts a rocking movement' to said spindle.
2. An indicator comprising an angle connection adapted for attachment to an engine crank case, a detachable dial carried by the outer end of said angle connection, a cap on .said connection having atransparent plate protecting said dial7 a pointer movable in front of said dial, a slotted crank back of said dial in parallelism with said pointer, means connecting saidfpointer andsaid slotted crank whereby said pointer and crank can only move in synchronism, an arm in said angle connection engagingvin lthe slot of said crank, and afloat on'said arm.
